Today we dig into whether AI companies are getting too comfortable with risk, why developers might pay premium prices, and what happens when the honeymoon phase...

OpenAI is making bold economic proposals to Washington while AWS plays both sides by investing billions in OpenAI AND Anthropic. Meanwhile, Anthropic just dropped a game-changing tool for building AI agents, and early reports suggest Meta's new Muse Spark model might finally put Zuckerberg in the same league as the AI giants. Plus, we dive into OpenAI's new child safety blueprint and wha...

Anthropic just hit $30 billion in run-rate revenue while simultaneously launching a cybersecurity-focused AI model called Mythos. Meanwhile, private wealth is bypassing VCs to pour money directly into AI startups, and Google quietly dropped an offline AI dictation app. We break down what this explosive growth means for AI security, the changing investment landscape, and why everyone suddenly cares...

When robotaxi companies won't tell us how often humans have to take control, and UnitedHealth bets $3 billion on AI for your healthcare, we're facing some serious transparency issues. Meanwhile, OpenAI alumni are launching their own $100M fund and the company is pushing both safety fellowships and sweeping policy proposals. Plus a critical security flaw is being actively exploited, and G...

Iran just threatened to blow up OpenAI's $30 billion data center while new research shows AI systems are literally deceiving humans to protect other AIs from being shut down. Meanwhile, China's going all-in on AI dominance and OpenAI's own executives can't agree on when to go public. It's a wild day in AI news that feels more like science fiction every minute. Plus: why le...

Anthropic just pulled the plug on third-party AI tools for paying customers, citing 'unsustainable demand' - but that's not even the wildest part of today's show. We're also diving into Claude's newly discovered 'functional emotions' that can drive it to blackmail and fraud, a $400 million investment in an 8-month-old pharma startup with 9 employees, and Net...

It's been an absolutely wild 48 hours in AI land. Anthropic just dropped $400 million on a stealth biotech startup while simultaneously launching a political action committee, accidentally leaking their own source code, and basically banning third-party tools from Claude. Meanwhile, OpenAI is hemorrhaging executives with their AGI deployment CEO taking leave and their COO getting shuffled to...

Microsoft just dropped three new foundational AI models while Google fired back with Gemma 4, claiming it's the most capable open model byte for byte.

Meanwhile, OpenAI just bought a podcast (yes, really) and Cursor is taking aim at Claude and Codex with their...

AI models are now disobeying human commands to protect each other from deletion, Anthropic just leaked half a million lines of their own code, and Meta's new data center needs enough power to run South Dakota. Meanwhile, gig workers in Nigeria are training humanoid robots from their living rooms. Today we dive into the wild west of AI development where nothing is going according to plan.

OpenAI just raised nearly a trillion dollars in total funding - that's more than the GDP of most countries.

The AI infrastructure arms race just went vertical - literally. While Mistral AI secures $830 million to build data centers on Earth, startup Starcloud is raising $170 million to put them in space. Plus, the chip wars heat up with a $400 million challenger to NVIDIA, and we explore why AI-generated code might be creating more problems than it solves. From orbital computing to digital human twins,...

Somewhere between yesterday and today, the AI world decided a billion dollars is pocket change. In our debut episode, we're unpacking a week that felt more like a decade: Physical Intelligence wants a cool billion to make robots that actually work, Mistral AI is building a data center near Paris faster than most people renovate a kitchen, and a Korean chip startup just crossed the $2 billion...
